    Sabell's is a brightly colored bungalow in Riverside Village that works as both a bar and a casual restaurant, with a dog-friendly patio and a salad-and-cocktail menu that skips the tweezers. There are no reservations and the volume stays low enough that you can finish a sentence. Kids are welcome until happy hour ends at 6, after which it belongs to adults, with za'atar fries. Nashville Scene named it Best Place to Eat Without the Kids.

    • Chicken sandwich

      “If your kids are really craving one of Sabell’s chicken sandwiches (can’t blame them), you can bring them in before 6 p.m.”

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
